The present invention is directed to a low VOC ultra high solids thermosetting coating composition. A polymeric component of the composition includes a low molecular weight polymer polymerized from a monomer mixture containing less than 45 percent by weight of at least one active hydrogen containing monomer. The polymerization takes place in the presence of a reactive diluent. By including the reactive diluent in the polymeric component of the composition, the amount of solvent used in the composition can be substantially reduced, while still providing a pot mix of the composition with a viscosity sufficient to permit efficient coating application. The coatings from the composition are durable; glossy; impact and solvent resistant; and adherent to a wide variety of substrates, such as automobile bumpers, road surfaces and office equipment. The surface of these coatings when subjected to scuffing or surface marring action can be substantially restored to its original condition by simply buffing or polishing the marred or scuffed surface. The invention is also directed to include a combination of chemicals in the thermosetting composition containing an isocyanate cross linking component. Such a combination simultaneously increases the pot life of the pot mix while decreasing the drying time of a coating from the pot mix at ambient temperature over a wide variety of substrate surfaces.
本发明涉及一种低挥发性有机化合物超高固体热固性涂料组合物。该组合物的聚合物成分包括由单体混合物聚合而成的低分子量聚合物,该单体混合物中至少含有一种活性含氢单体,其重量百分比小于 45%。聚合反应是在有活性稀释剂存在的情况下进行的。通过在组合物的聚合物成分中加入反应性稀释剂,可以大大减少组合物中溶剂的用量,同时仍能提供具有足够粘度的组合物罐装混合物,以保证涂料的有效应用。该组合物制成的涂料具有耐久性、光泽度、抗冲击性和耐溶剂性,可附着在汽车保险杠、路面和办公设备等各种基材上。当这些涂层的表面受到刮擦或表面损伤时,只需对损伤或刮擦过的表面进行磨光或抛光处理,就能基本恢复到原来的状态。本发明的另一个目的是在含有异氰酸酯交联成分的热固性组合物中加入化学品组合。这种组合物可同时提高罐装混合物的罐装寿命,同时缩短罐装混合物在各种基材表面上的涂层在环境温度下的干燥时间。
